“Because there was a lot of information to be absorbed, it was important to inject some light-hearted moments into the agenda and you achieved this splendidly. It is not an easy task to keep people motivated and interested over such a long period and your professionalism and attention to detail throughout the conference was very much appreciated”.
Mike Randall
General Manager

Electrolux
“Within seconds of commencing you turned a room of 150 semi-sceptics in to enthusiastic participants. Your energy & enthusiasm, not to mention fun activities [and of course handcuffs] won them over and set our conference off to a great start. People immediately relaxed and the ‘on no not another conference’ feeling was immediately dissipated. Your humour and ability to engage the team made the conference one of the best ever held by Telstra Legal. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to other organisations”.
Sue Laver, Group Manager, Business Strategy & Operations
Legal & Company Secretariat

Telstra Legal
“Your MC’ing rated very highly in our final evaluation report and all the comments about you were positive, including “The MC was excellent; Andrew was great again; very clear and genuinely upbeat and humorous; fantastic MC – jolly, witty, bright and not too over the top; MC added value to the entire program”

“It is an ongoing challenge to find professional speakers for industry conferences who can communicate effectively with their audience, both on and off-stage. Andrew Klein is one of those unique people. Not only is Andrew an excellent MC and entertainer, but he also has the ability to facilitate workshops and open forums. Our association has hired Andrew a number of times because of these abilities. In addition, his pre-event research and planning and contagious sense of humour mean that he quickly endears himself to audiences”

"As the conference's MC you managed to keep our audience alert and energised throughout several intense business sessions. The workshop debrief showcased your interview and facilitation skills, where you made a seemingly difficult task into an easy one using your intelligence, quick wit and intuition. As MC we also appreciate the research you put into preparing personalised introductions for all speakers as this helped to set the tone for a very polished conference."
Sue Ashton
General Manager, Retail Banking Services

COMMONWEALTH BANK
"Not only was your preparation for the event well beyond our expectations but your handling of the constant schedule changes and some more memorable difficult moments with speakers were handled exceptionally well. Darren I can't thank you enough for going that extra mile, it is difficult to come up with one specific example as there were so many, perhaps suffice to say 'cane toad racing' probably wasn't in your contract!"
